Due libri che ho letto di seguito e che hanno in comune il fatto di essere giapponesi, di avere un numero nel titolo e di essere travolgenti (nel miglior significato che si può dare al termine).TRASCRIZIONE CON LINK (English translation & links below)Per una serie di motivi a me assolutamente ignoti che possiamo chiamare caso, mi è capitato di leggere uno dopo l'altro due libri giapponesi, tutti e due con un numero nel titolo e tutti e due libri che mi hanno completamente catturato l'attenzione, infatti per tutto il tempo in cui leggevo questi libri non facevo nient'altro.Il primo che ho letto in ordine di tempo è I sette killer dello Shinkansen dell'autore Isaka Kotaro, film libro da cui è stato anche tratto un film uscito pochi mesi fa, che si chiama Bullet Train.Parlo brevemente del libro: I sette killer dello Shinkansen è esattamente quello che il titolo fa immaginare. C'è lo Shinkansen, che è il bullet train, il treno superveloce che c'è in Giappone (c'è anche in altre parti del mondo, però questo in particolare in Giappone) che durante un tragitto che compie senza fermate ci sono sette killer su questo treno, che si inseguono e si ammazzano a vicenda nei modi più rocamboleschi possibili. Pensate un po' Tarantino, però con l'ironia e la profondità della cultura giapponese.Il libro mi è piaciuto particolarmente, anche perché io sullo Shinkansen ci sono stata (e vorrei tanto tornarci), per cui mi immaginavo proprio le scene, mi immaginavo i movimenti da una carrozza all'altra. A differenza di tanti libri giapponesi che ho letto, questo di Isaka Kotaro ha un grandissimo senso proprio cinematografico, infatti la prima cosa che ho pensato mentre lo leggevo "questo sarebbe un fantastico film". Infatti anche il film, di solito i film tratti dai libri lasciano il tempo che trovano, invece sono riusciti a fare una cosa diciamo che non rispecchia totalmente il libro, anche perché il libro è così rocambolesco, così pieno di parti anche più intimiste eccetera, che sarebbe molto difficile da rendere in in un film di cassetta, però è un film godibilissimo.Il secondo libro, che ha un numero nel titolo è Le quattro casalinghe di Tokyo di Natsuo Kirino. Anche questo è un libro abbastanza rocambolesco anche se meno, diciamo, alla Tarantino, anche qua ci sono dei crimini che non vi sto a raccontare perché non voglio spoilerare, però vale veramente la pena leggerlo, poi tra l'altro ho visto su Wikipedia che anche da questo libro è stato tratto un film.Una cosa interessante è che una volta finito Le quattro casalinghe di Tokyo mi sono resa conto che avevo a casa un altro libro di Natsuo Karino, di cui non ricordo nemmeno il titolo, che però avevo iniziato a leggere, avevo lasciato dopo una cinquantina di pagine perché non mi convinceva. Bene, tornerò a riprenderlo e finirò di leggerlo.ENGLISH TRANSLATION WITH LINKSFor a series of reasons absolutely unknown to me that we can call chance, I happened to read two Japanese books one after the other, both with a number in the title and both books that completely captured my attention, in fact all the time I was reading these books I was doing nothing else.The first I've read in chronological order is The Seven Killers of the Shinkansen [English title Bullet Train] by the author Isaka Kotaro, a book from which they also released a movie, titled Bullet Train, a few months ago.I speak briefly about the book: The Seven Killers of the Shinkansen is exactly what the title suggests. You have the Shinkansen, which is the Bullet train, the super-fast train that you find in Japan (it's also in other parts of the world, but this one in particular is in Japan) and during a non-stop journey there are seven killers on this train, chasing and killing each other in the most daring ways possible. Imagine Tarantino, but with the irony and depth of Japanese culture.I particularly liked the book, also because I've been there on the Shinkansen (and I would love to go back), so I could really imagined the scenes, I imagined the movements from one carriage to another. Unlike many Japanese books I've read, this one by Isaka Kotaro has a very great cinematic sense, in fact the first thing I thought while reading it was "this would be a fantastic film". In fact, even the film, usually films based on books are not so good, instead they managed to do something let's say that even if it doesn't totally reflect the book, also because the book is so daring, so full of somehow reflective parts and so on, which would be very difficult to render in a blockbuster film, but it is a highly enjoyable film nevertheless.The second book, which has a number in the title is The Four Housewives of Tokyo [English title: Out] by Natsuo Kirino. This is also a quite daring book even if less, let's say, Tarantino-like, here too there are some crimes that I won't tell you about because I don't want to spoil it, but it's really worth reading, and - among other things - I saw on Wikipedia that they made a movie also from this book.An interesting thing is that once I finished The Four Housewives of Tokyo I realized that I had another nice book by Natsuo Kirino at home, whose title I don't even remember, which however I had started reading but that I had left after about fifty pages because it didn't convince me. Well, I'll go back to it and will finish reading.
PopaHALLics #88 "The Game is Afoot!"It's elementary, my dear listener. Steve and Kate have fun discussing "Enola Holmes 2," about Sherlock's younger sister on the trail of a missing match girl. We also talk murder—both real (at Harvard, no less) and fictional (a coworker coverup in Japan)—and explore the curious case of a schlocky zombie movie that isn't what it seems. This mystery is worthy of Baker Street! Streaming:"Enola Holmes 2," Netflix. Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven on "Stranger Things") returns as an aspiring detective hoping to break out of the shadow of her famous brother. She talks directly to the camera as she gets into one hair-raising scrape after another. Big fun. With Helena Bonham Carter and Henry Cavill. "One Cut of the Dead," Shudder and rental. This clever, hilarious Japanese zombie comedy written and directed by Shin'ichirō Ueda features a play within a play. We first see what appears to be a short, cheap zombie movie shot in one continuous take about a filmmaking crew attacked by real zombies. But then the camera pulls back to show us what's going on behind the scenes of the movie about the movie. In Japanese with English subtitles."The School for Good and Evil," Netflix. In a movie based on a bestselling book series, best friends Sophie and Agatha find themselves on opposing sides when they join an enchanted school for aspiring heroes and villains.Books:"Out," by Natsuo Kirino. This 1997 Japanese crime novel won Best Novel from the Mystery Writers of Japan. When a female factory worker murders her husband, her three coworkers try to help her get away with it. That sets off a deadly cat and mouse game with the police and a local gangster, as well as simmering tensions within the group."We Keep the Dead Close: a Murder at Harvard and a Half Century of Silence," by Becky Cooper. In this critically acclaimed true crime narrative, a reporter sets out to find out the truth about the 1969 bludgeoning death of 23-year-old graduate student Jane Britton. The rumors were that she had an affair with her professor, who murdered her when she threatened to go public ..."I'm Glad My Mom Died," by Jennette McCurdy. in this fast read of a memoir, the former "iCarly" actress explores her complicated relationship with her show business-oriented mother."The Final Girl Support Group," by Grady Hendrix. This sly horror novel asks the question: In slasher movies, the final girls are the ones left standing when the credits roll. They made it through the worst night of their lives…but what happens after?Two Heartland Movies Coming to Theaters:Previous episodes talked about two new movies at the Heartland Film Festival in Indianapolis: "The Whale," with Brendan Fraser's comeback as a 600-lb. college professor seeking to reconcile with his daughter (Sadie Sink), and "Corsage," a lush reimagining of one year in the life of the tragic Austrian Empress Elisabeth (Vicky Kreps). The New York Times, says "The Whale" will debut in theaters on Dec. 9 and "Corsage" on Dec. 23. Click through the links above to watch, read, and listen to what we're talking about.

Podcast novel review of Real World by Natsuo Kirino. Translated by Philip Gabriel. Originally published in Japan by Shueisha in 2003. Published in US by Vintage, July 2009, $14.00. From the back cover: In a crowded Tokyo suburb, four teenage girls indifferently wade their way through a hot, smoggy summer. When one of them, Toshi, discovers that her nextdoor neighbor has been brutally murdered, the girls suspect the killer is the neighbor's son. But when he flees, taking Toshi's bike and cell phone with him, the four girls get caught up in a tempest of dangers that rise from within them as well as from the world around them. Psychologically intricate and astute, Real World is a searing, eye-opening portrait of teenage life in Japan unlike any we have seen before. My Grade: A On Amazon.com, you can read the first 8 pages of the novel: Click here to read pages 1-8
